I,m not sure how I’m going to lose any more weight when I am hungry all the time. My band is giving great restriction and Dr. Birch is reluctant to give me another fill…..and he is right….any more fill would be uncomfortable tight. So I am going to have to exercise the weight off. I don,t have any other options other than the Dr. Bernstein diet and I want to save that for my “last chance”. The thought of going to a gym is just plain ugly for me for me…..I think that wasting time at a gym is just that… wasted time…. so I think I will ride my pedal bike as much as possible and look into a elliptical trainer of some sort so I can work out while watching a ball game. Thats the plan anyway…..see what I can do.

Well its time to get the bike out…..the weather has warmed up and most of the snow has melted so I had better get a few miles in before it snows again ( the forecast is for snow/rain for Thursday. I have to get a new battery and I should be ready to go. Maybe a run out to the Drumheller valley…..still will be cold in the mountains. I will have to see how my day goes.

I had to take my pedal bike into Sports Check and get the rear spokes tightened. The rim had gone out of round…….i guess from carrying my 250 lbs around. I want to get into a regular schedule of riding every night. If I am going to lose any more weight I need to get into a regular exercise program. I think I will start off with some bike riding around the block……don’t want to rush into this…..hehe……maybe strain something. There is still a foot of snow but that will melt by the weekend and then there is no more putting this exercise thing off. i either exercise or settle for 250 as my low weight. I do think I can get down to 230 range with some work.

I tried to get the Kawasaki for the kid but he didn’t want it….not cool enough for him I guess. He wants a crotch rocket. That I am not going to get for him…..If he kills himself at least I won’t be a part of it. He hasn’t picked one out yet and he hasn’t got any money so I think  were safe for the short turn.  Maybe I can find him a nice Sportster.

Well…..there is only one way to explain it……I,m pissed off……It’s still snowing, the Flames lost, and my bike has a dead battery and my race car is still in pieces. It’s been a really long winter. Not that hard a winter, just long. Boy am I ready for spring/summer. I just need a good run on the bike to get my head straight….maybe a run to the cabin….I should mention that the cabin is in Nova Scotia…..yes a 12000 km run…..that would do it.
